Questions
Frequently asked
What cut level is the Pads99 Red Sandwich Pad?
The red colour coding indicates a heavy cut level. It is designed for aggressive first-stage correction work - removing deep swirl marks, heavy oxidation and coarse scratches before you move to a lighter refining or finishing pad.
What size backing plate does this pad fit?
This pad is 5 inches in diameter and is built to fit standard 5-inch backing plates on both dual-action and rotary polishing machines.
Can I use this pad on a dual-action machine or only a rotary?
The 5-inch Red Sandwich Pad works on both dual-action and rotary polishers. The sandwich foam construction helps manage heat and pad integrity on either machine type.
Which compounds or polishes pair well with this pad?
Pair it with a heavy or medium-cut compound for first-stage correction. Because it is a cutting pad, avoid using it with finishing polishes - save those for a softer pad in a later stage of your correction process.
Is this pad suitable for all paint types, including PPF and clear bra?
The Red Sandwich Pad is intended for clear-coat paintwork correction. It is a heavy cutting pad, so use it with care on softer clear coats and avoid using it on PPF or vinyl wraps, where a less aggressive pad and product combination is recommended.
How do I prime the pad before use?
Apply a few dots of compound directly to the pad face and spread it across the panel at low speed before ramping up. Priming the pad ensures even product distribution from the first pass and prevents dry buffing that can mar the surface.
How do I clean and care for the pad between uses?
Rinse the pad under warm running water immediately after use and work the foam gently with your fingers to release compound residue. Allow it to air dry face-down away from direct heat. Store flat to keep the foam from compressing unevenly.
Where are Pads99 pads manufactured?
Pads99 products are manufactured entirely in Germany under strict quality controls. The brand positions German engineering as the foundation of consistent cut, foam durability and finish quality across its full pad range.
